Zedboard gerber files needed!

[Leon18]

Agile Mixed Signaling (AMS) Connector, J2 is not the same as the layout from Hardware user guide. It has to be rotated 180 degree clockwise. Where can I find the gerberfiles of Zedboard?

Hi @Leon18,

The AMS header / XADC header on J2 is accurate; there is an existing silkscreen printing indicating the corner location of pin 1 (also indicated by the square pin on the underside of the board) that corresponds to Vn as per Table 17 of Avnet's Hardware User Guide as well as the schematic of the Zedboard (lower left corner on page 2): https://digilent.com/reference/programmable-logic/zedboard/start#documentation.

I do not know why the diagram presented in Avnet's documentation is rotated 180 degrees from how the hardware has existed since it first launched in 2013.

Thanks,
JColvin

Thank you for your info. The gerber files is not available on digilent website. I want to study the layout of the Zedboard. Where can I find gerber files for Zedboard?

Nowhere - they are not publicly available.

Someone posted dxf files here. But is is missing one layer (https://forum.digilent.com/topic/20558-zed-board-design-files-gerbers/)

DXF and gerbers are two different things.
